"That's right! There's a passageway to Synesta here. A lot of people from Synesta fled here during the war using it. Even though the war may be over, it's our job to protect it, in case anyone ever needs to use it again."
— Mayor to party, explaining passage
Kyria is a location in Breath of Fire IV. It is a town located on the Eastern Continent. In order to defend the town from external threats, the villages have littered it with a variety of traps. The cave in the hill overlooking the town serves as entrance to an escape tunnel leading to Synesta.
After leaving the Dam, Ryu, Nina, Cray, and Ershin find themselves at Kyria. A town full of tricks and traps with a river flowing through it. The party must get through Kyria to get to Synesta but need permission from the Mayor (Breath of Fire IV) as the path is blocked off by guards.
They eventually fall through a hole in the ground and make their way back up a ladder, which leads them into the mayor's house. Inside, they only find a bird that speaks in riddles. Upon answering "No time", "No", "no" and "not really", the bird reveals that the mayor has gone into the nearby woods in order to hunt. The party then makes their way into the woods close to town.
Upon their return, the mayor opens up the passage to Synesta and the party can finally proceed to their next destination on their quest to find Elina. (see below)

Close to the hill with the passage to Synesta, fall through a hole in the ground and collect the treasure
The passage to Synesta is finally opened as the mayor was rescued in the woods. This pathway has been used by cilillians who fled to Kyria during the war. Synesta was a hex target during the war and therefore mostly destroyed and cursed. Monsters are still teeming in the underground, not only in this city, but also in this very pathway. The cadavers and zombies were also enemies found in N. Chamba, a previously visited town that too was hit with a hex shot.
The party makes haste to traverse this dark and wet cavern and finally arrives in Synesta where they continue the search for the missing princess Elina.
